Summer may be ending but that doesn't mean the "shag" is going out of style. On Thursday evenings in September, the Science Museum of Virginia wants to help Richmonders dance their way into fall with four weeks of music and good times to be had by all, during Swinging on the Tracks.

Select exhibits will also be open during the concerts, including the "Hubble Space Telescope: New Views of the Universe" exhibit where you can explore the closest planets to farthest galaxies.

Below, Richmond.com gives you a sneak peak at the bands the Science Museum has in store. Kick off the season with the KOS Band to the final performance by The Tony Rice Unit, Swinging on the Tracks is a great way to celebrate the coming of fall.

The Blue Dogs
Echoes of bluegrass, jam band sounds and commercial roots pop-rock playfully fall together for The Blue Dogs, landing them somewhere between the right of Americana and the left of mainstream Nashville. Richmond's classic rockers, the Poston Brown Project open.
